I’ve encountered an issue with image display in Google News. I’ve added several RSS feeds optimized for Google News in my publication, and in the preview on publishercenter.google.com, the images appear correctly. However, in the Google News app, some articles are displayed without images.
Additional details:
The images are correctly included in the feed, using the show_images=true parameter.
In the app, some articles do not display the image at all, even though the images show up correctly in the Publisher Center preview.
I’ve tried various solutions suggested on forums (changing feed parameters, checking image formats), but the issue persists.

I would appreciate any suggestions on how to resolve this issue so that all images are displayed correctly in Google News.
Thank you!
I added several RSS feeds to Google News using custom parameters for image display.
